What is a .axq file?
An AXQ file is a proprietary query file format developed by Axonix Corporation for their data analysis and business intelligence software. These files store custom queries designed to extract, filter, and aggregate data from various sources, often within the Axonix ecosystem. They are not intended for direct end-user viewing or editing but rather serve as executable instructions for the Axonix platform to perform data operations. While they can contain complex logic, their primary function is to streamline data retrieval for reporting and analysis.

Common Problems with .axq Files
Frequently Asked Questions
No, AXQ files are binary and contain proprietary code. Opening them in a text editor will display unreadable characters and will not allow you to edit the query logic.
There is no free viewer for AXQ files as they are part of a commercial software suite. Access to Axonix software is required to view and execute these queries.
The AXQ file itself is not for sharing data directly. You must use the Axonix software to execute the query and then export the results into a more common format like CSV or XLSX.
Technical Details
AXQ files are binary files containing structured commands and parameters that dictate how the Axonix platform should interact with databases or data sources. They define fields to select, conditions for filtering, join criteria, and aggregation functions. The exact internal structure is not publicly documented, making them difficult to interpret or manipulate outside of authorized Axonix applications.
